7 1/4 inch gauge ride-in battery electric - stock code 11779

A 7 1/4 inch gauge battery-electric with wooden superstructure on a steel bogie chassis.

Fitted with a 4QD Uni 8 24V controller and what looks like a C5 motor - much used back in the day when large quantities of them were available surplus after the failure of the eponymous trike. Open circuit on test, we couldn't get any sense out of it.

The master switch is faulty, although a new one came with the locomotive. No sound card, just a horn (which works fine).

Supplied without batteries.
